What Laminate is that? Are you salvaging laminate from original cabinets?


I found some laminate at a cabinet supplier. It is called Nevamar Grand Isle Maple. I had to rob the white laminate from a table Mr Jerry Had.


Nicely Done, How close is it to original? Ive gone through the wilsonart and Formica catalogs a bunch of times and none look as close as the Nevamar does.

Thanks it is very close. I am pretty sure the pattern is dead on. In the pic below that is the original door the Icebox is sitting on.The og laminate may have a little of a red hue compared to this stuff but it is hard to pick up.

In between other things going on I finished the replacement cabinet and icebox. Now we are getting ready for the camping show season this year, so hopefully the updates will be with it at campsites and shows this year.

Moved all the stuff in the way and hung out with Eric and Kelly at the local show today. We have missed out on several shows and camping chances due to other things going on. We will have to prioritize some camping trips back in our schedules.
Cruised with the windows wide open since it was so hot today.
